Linda!?! what's going on!!!

Well you've got to tell yourself its another phase and will pass and you have to get it straight that it is a choice not a sacrifice, in fact you have gained so much from quitting.

Focus on the all good things about not smoking i.e. health, wealth, not stinking, not being a social outcast, not being ruled by having to make sure that you have sufficient supplies of cigs to function etc. Do you really want to go back to the bad days!

Oh, and you won't be yourself again if you cave, you will be the chemically altered Linda that you were for so long previously.

No pressure here but if you fail now what kind of example is that to us early days quitters!!!!!

Now, pull yourself together and banish the nicodemon!

Good luck, I don't need to tell you that you can do it. Deep down you know you can, after all you've got this far.

i know you have had a rough quit because of others but you have sooooo proved how strong you are ....you are here and still quit....and i take my hat off to you...........i doubt i would have been able to be as strong!!

and the man in your life can pi55 off.......they are so weak anyway!!!....this is about you!!!!!

get over today.........post to us tomorrow........your NOT allowed to smoke today!!!

Linda, i'll just echo the sentiments expressed by the others - just dont do it! You know deep down its not worth it. At this point (9 months down :eek it will do ZERO to help you, and you'll only feel let down by yourself after.

Thank you all very much for your support. Dont worry not caving with out a very good fight. Just wish I could change my mind set from thinking I am missing out on something not craving a smoke I know its all in my stupid mind. going to try my best not come this far to just give up. Has you all know my son has a BIg drink prob and has been dry for 8 months on the 24th If he can do it so can I. Thank you all for your caring words They have helped alot over the last 24 hours. xxxxx
